  • Chess is Racist!

    Not only is chess racist, it is also sexist and patriarchal. The fact that the Queen is the most powerful piece on the board proves nothing to the contrary. The powers allowed to the Queen are in truth nothing more than so many sops thrown to the feminists to keep them quiet. The sexism and…

  • Marketing Idea: Salsa for Philosophers

    Call it Salsa Veritatis and accept no substitutes!

  • I Receive Holiday Greetings from Thales

  • Get ‘Em While They Last!

    Now half-priced!  The perfect complement to the  race card.  No true liberal leaves home without both.  Gives new meaning to 'card-carrying Democrat.'  And it secures access to ladies' rooms throughout the land, regardless of the bearer's sex!

  • Muslim and Marxist

    Muslim:  There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is his prophet. Marxist:  There is no God, and Marx is his prophet.

  • Is Race a Social Construct?

    If there are no races, then no one is a racist.  But conservatives, by definition, are racists.  So if race is a social construct in a sense that implies that there are  no races, then there are no conservatives either.

  • The Highest Form of Diversity

    Barack Hussein Obama, being mulatto, both white and black, exemplifies the highest form of diversity, self-diversity.  It is this amazing fact that explains his success at having brought us all together.

  • Liberal Voter Identification

    A death certificate will do. (Adapted from a Dennis Miller riff I heard last night on The O'Reilly Factor.) The serious point here is that the Left is bent on voting fraud.  The clearest and simplest proof of this is their mindless and transparently sophistical opposition to photo ID. Someone ought to make a movie,…

  • Dog Shoots Man

    With all the mindless hyperventilation of dumb-assed liberals over gun control in the wake of Orlando, we need some comic relief.  Herewith, a repost from 27 February 2013. ………………… What the hell's going on in Florida?  The other day an oven shot a woman, and now a dog has shot a man, with an 'unloaded'…

  • The Differences Between Me and You

    I'm sensitive, you're touchy.  I'm firm,  you are pigheaded.  Frugality in me is cheapness in you.  I am open-minded, you are empty-headed.  I am careful, you are obsessive.  I am courageous while you are as reckless as a Kennedy.  I am polite but you are obsequious.  My speech is soothing, yours is unctuous.  I am…

  • Trump, the Board Game

    But if you are thinking of not voting for Trump should he get the Republican nomination, by not voting at all or  voting for Hillary, Mark Levin has some choice words for you, words with which I heartily agree: . . . I can understand ‘stop Trump’ in a primary process. But stop Trump or you’ll…
